Classification Tamil language,  Dravidian languages


Tamil belongs to the southern branch of the Dravidian languages, a family of around 26 languages native to the Indian subcontinent.[31] It is also classified as being part of a Tamil language family that,

alongside Tamil proper, includes the languages of about 35 ethno-linguistic groups[32] such as the Irula and Yerukula languages (see SIL Ethnologue).


The closest major relative of Tamil is Malayalam; the two began diverging around the 9th century AD.[33] Although many of the differences between Tamil and Malayalam demonstrate a pre-historic split of the western dialect,[34] the process of separation into a distinct language, Malayalam, was not completed until sometime in the 13th or 14th century
